Two Internet Fraudsters Bag 16 Months Jail Term by NaijaCelebrity: 6:43am On May 08, 2019
Justice Mojisola Dada of the Special Offences Court sitting in Ikeja, Lagos, on Tuesday, May 7, 2019, convicted and sentenced two Internet fraudsters, Akinleye Sheriff, a.k.a. Tracy Gifford, and Ganiyu Sheriff Abiodun, a.k.a Sandra Avri, to one year and four months imprisonment respectively for possession of fraudulent documents, an offence contrary to Section 320 (1) (c) of the Criminal Laws of Lagos State No. 11 of 2015.

The convicts, who were arrested by officials of the EFCC during a raid at the Ologolo-Igbo Efon area of Lagos State on March 13, 2019, were arraigned today on a one-count charge bordering on possession of fraudulent documents.

Count one of the charge reads: “That you, Akinleye Sheriff (a.k.a Tracy Gifford) and Ganiyu Sherif Abiodun (a.k.a Sandra Avril), on or about the 13th day of March 2019, at Lagos within the Ikeja Judicial Division, have in your possession a document wherein you falsely represented yourselves as Tracy Gifford and Sandra Avril respectively when you knew or ought to know, having regard to the circumstances of the case that the documents contain false pretence.”

The defendants pleaded guilty to the one count charge preferred against them.

The prosecution counsel, Bilikisu Buhari Bala, informed the court of a plea bargain entered into by the defendants with the Commission and also prayed that they be convicted accordingly.

Delivering her judgment, Justice Dada convicted and sentenced the defendants to one year and four months imprisonment with an option of N250, 000 fine.

The Judge further ordered the forfeiture of a Lexus SUV 15250, HP Beat Studio laptop, two I-phone Xs Gold, one black Nokia Torch, one Acer laptop and one Apple Mac Book Air recovered from the defendants to the Federal Government.

Good work. The prevalence of internet fraud may surprise you. That is the past time of many undergraduates now. Very sad. Damaging the already poor international image of the country. One night, I had an urgent assignment and because my system was down I decided to complete it up at a nearby internet café. I was really stunned that to my right and left, front and back were yahoo yahoo. One was writing from the office of the President of the United States, another was a Swiss refugee whose family fortune was trapped in Ghana, the other was a Saudi Prince. I was Shocked on realizing that of about fifty persons in the café, I was the only one on genuine concern! It can be that prevalent, dear. An epidemic. These people spinning these convincing yarns have raw talent. But obviously channeled them wrongly into crime. A good government will be able to harvest these cyber criminals and turn them to good use.

he was in possession of fraudulent document. But as naija we all know is yahoo but they would have advised him to admit to the crime than fight for bail and poseponement of case . Don't be full that they won't spend 3 days once 250k is paid. Money which would have even be set aside before case even started.always read term and condition first. For a person with such car. They only have property to lose and not even all . this is no case at all. Its 250k vs one year.
